Comparison of the high-pressure behavior of the cerium oxides and
Abstract
The high pressure behavior of Ce2O3 was studied using angle dispersive X-ray diffraction to 70 GPa and compared with that of CeO2. Up to the highest pressure Ce2O3 remains in the hexagonal phase (space group 164, P-32/m1) typical for the lanthanide sesquioxides. A theoretically predicted phase instability for 30 GPa is not observed. The isothermal bulk modulus and its pressure derivative for the quasi-hydrostatic case are B0 = 111 ± 2 GPa, B0’ = 4.7 ± 0.3 and for the case without pressure transmitting medium B0 = 104 ± 4 GPa, B0’ = 6.5 ± 0.4. Starting from ambient pressure magnetic susceptibility measurements for both oxides in highly purified form we find that the Ce atom in Ce2O3 behaves like a trivalent Ce3+ ion (2.57 μB per Ce atom) in contrast to previously published data. Since X-ray emission spectroscopy of the Lγ (4d3/2 → 2p1/2) transition is sensitive to the 4f-electron occupancy, we also followed the high-pressure dependence of this line for both oxides up to 50 GPa. No change of the respective lineshape was observed, indicating that the 4f-electron configuration is stable for both materials. We posit from this data that the 4f-electrons do not drive the volume collapsemore »
